Thames and London Waterways Forum
The Thames and London Waterways Forum is a partnership coordinating strategy and activities on the Thames and London’s waterways.
Forum members work together to develop and implement relevant policies as set out in the Mayor’s Transport Strategy, London Environment Strategy, London Plan, Culture Strategy, TfL’s London Passenger Piers Strategy and Freight and Servicing Action Plan. The Forum also supports the Port of London Authority’s ‘Thames Vision 2050’ which outlines long-term priorities for the Thames.
The Forum aims to promote the river Thames and London’s canals and other waterways, bringing together stakeholders to advise the Mayor on river and waterway issues.
A steering group, which includes representatives from the Greater London Authority, Port of London Authority and Transport for London, reports to the Deputy Mayor for Transport. The steering group provides strategic direction for the river and will drive through improvements.
The Terms of Reference of the Steering Group will be updated shortly.
An annual Forum is held to discuss key achievements, challenges, and progress on the river.
